Starting February 1, the CME will be increasing fees for the following: E-mini Futures Micro E-mini Futures CME Bitcoin Futures and Options Ether Futures E-micro FX Futures FX Options The exact breakdown of the fee increases are attached.
these assholes increased it for .01 for both emini and micro. Like god damn, wtf these guys need to pay for? ps. makes micro contracts less and less attractive already due to comm
Unless we are reading it wrong, both the micro and e-mini index for non-members are going up by $0.05 per side. The micro index products are going from $0.25 to $0.30 and the e-minis from $1.23 to $1.28. The micro represents a 20% increase.
you're right . i kept looking at member rate micro went from 0.25 to 0.30 emini went from 1.23 to 1.28 much worse then. again, micros just gettin f'ed up with these comms. @Baron start an exchange please and beat these guys
CME fees suck but they have monster volume in the futures that i trade and tight spreads. I mean compared to say european equity futures, like FTSE futures and DAX futures where exchange fees are much lower. DAX futures are 2 points wide a lot of the time. Still these constant price increases from CME are pure greed..
